Learning Packet: Work

A Selected Chronology of Accomplishments and Inventions in the Old World

A SELECTED CHRONOLOGY OF ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND INVENTION IN THE OLD WORLD

The following list gives dates and locations based on current archaeological and documentary evidence, and both are the earliest known occurrences at present, but are sub­ject to change as research is published. Read B.P. as Before Present and as being prior to A.D. 1978.

195 Steam comes of age with Watt's patents of economical engines for pumping water.

NOTE: The foregoing is not intended to be a comprehensive chronology, but it does tend to indicate man's cultur­al development, in a technological sense, during what has been referred to as his "civilized period." The items noted could be considered to be, in part, those which tend to change social customs or make man "human," in the philosophic sense.
